Reach for this book when your child is facing a transition into more adult-like responsibilities or struggling with the realization that achieving a goal is often just the beginning of the real work. It is an ideal choice for the young person who is naturally protective of others and needs to see that true leadership requires moral courage and the ability to prioritize the needs of the vulnerable over personal glory. As the final installment of the Protector of the Small quartet, the story follows Keladry of Mindelan as a newly knighted leader during a brutal wartime invasion. While the setting is a rich high-fantasy world, the emotional core deals with the gritty reality of leadership and the weight of making life-or-death decisions. It is appropriate for mature middle schoolers, offering a masterclass in integrity while acknowledging that doing the right thing often comes at a personal cost.
